“Equal Opportunity Employer” Las Vegas Police Department Will Not Accept Unvaccinated Recruits
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD), which brands itself as an “equal opportunity employer”, has announced that it will not accept new recruits who have not been vaccinated against Covid, with just a few limited exceptions. The Epoch Times has the story.
“LVMPD is requiring all new hire employees to be vaccinated and to show proof of vaccination for Covid prior to being hired,” their application page reads.
At the end of the announcement, they style the Department as an “equal opportunity employer”.
“All appointments to the competitive service shall be made without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, national origin, genetic information, military service or political affiliation, and shall be based on merit and fitness only,” the statement reads.
There are some limited exemptions in cases such as health and allergies or religious exonerations…
The Employment Diversity Office will have the religious exemption cases forwarded to them for approval, and the health and allergy cases will be sent to the Health and Safety Section for approval…
More than half of U.S. states have banned [vaccine] passports, asserting they present serious privacy concerns and disparate treatment of the unvaccinated.
The President of the largest union of health care workers in the United States says the organisation will fight against companies requiring mandatory Covid vaccines for employees.
Meanwhile, in the U.K., care home workers have been told that they will have to choose between getting vaccinated or losing their jobs. The same rule is also likely to be applied to healthcare workers in other settings, according to reports.
The Epoch Times report is worth reading in full.

So LVPD is officially advertising for the most gullible and cowardly, not great traits for a police officer I would have thought.
That said, the jab also demonstrates conformity and unquestioning adherence to authority, which i’m sure are probably more important attributes these days, just as they were under fascism and communism.
Total obedience and belief in the official narrative are the most important traits for police officers all over the world.
all they had to do to strip you of your freedom was rebrand flu

just for fun….imagine a parallel universe
there is a disease coming
I invent a prophylactic intervention that involves beating you with leather straps for 15 minutes
90% of people have this ‘vaccine’. for most people its annoying and painful but you get over it. It kills the most frail
now the disease runs riot – hey presto – most people who die haven’t had the intervention – the intervention has worked! there aren’t any frail people left to kill in the ‘intervention cohort’!
on a serious note. the vaccine produced side effects in the study groups that were worse than having covid. there was an expectation it would kill the most frail – and was banned in many countries above a certain age for that reason. lots of places have seen a post vaccine spike in deaths
now, our vaccinated and non-vaccinated cohort are no longer comparable – one has had the most frail weaned out of it
Ronald Reagan – ‘If fascism ever comes to America, it will come in the name of Liberalism’
But presumably Reagan meant a form of corrupted Liberalism?
I generally consider myself to be a Liberalist, and just to reemphasise what the actual credo is, here is the first definition I have found of Liberalism:
1.
willingness to respect or accept behaviour or opinions different from one’s own; openness to new ideas.
2.
a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise.
What is happening now bears no relation to the above, it is the complete opposite.
I think he meant Fascism under the cover of Liberalism. ie pretend to be something that broadly everyone agrees with but you aren’t really that thing at all.
a bit like Fascism under the cover of Public Health advocacy
Very prescient, he obviously saw the potential pitfalls within the system.
Two nations divided by a common language. When an American refers to “a liberal” or to “liberalism”, he means “a socialist” or “socialism”, respectively. Certainly that’s what Reagan meant by it. Now, our country having become largely a satellite of the US over the past century, and heavily culturally polluted by American attitudes over that period via films, tv and most recently social media, the situation here is somewhat confused for most. Over the same time we have seen the general triumph of socialism in most areas of life, in the sense that US Supreme Court Justice Scalia put it here: “When I say least diluted by socialism you must understand that I say it in a modern context, in which we are all socialists” The kind of liberalism to which you refer is the old meaning of it in this country, referring to tolerance of dissent and moderate, small government governance based upon that. There are no liberal parties in our mainstream politics today. The Liberal Party was the last bastion of that kind of liberalism and it was replaced by the socialist Labour and later LibDem parties. There are relatively liberal politicians on left and right within the… Read more »
Yes, some good points.
The interesting thing about the “greater good” is that it can also be interpreted differently. Isn’t utilitarianism, which tends to be favoured by the right, a doctrine of the greater good? Populism could also be seen as an ideology for the greater good.
Either way, the madness over the last 16 months certainly hasn’t helped the greater good, that of course is propaganda. Yet it has still trampled all over individualism and liberty, so the worst of both worlds.
“The interesting thing about the “greater good” is that it can also be interpreted differently. Isn’t utilitarianism, which tends to be favoured by the right, a doctrine of the greater good?” Need to be a little careful here. The “greater good” can certainly be interpreted in many ways, and in my comment above referred to particular interpretations of the greater good of society, broadly based on utilitarianism. Utilitarianism is by no means particularly favoured by the right, who in the past have generally based their ideas of the greater good on overriding priorities such as God, country, race, ruler. Utilitarianism says that only the greatest good for the greatest number can be the priority, and has generally been associated with the political left. “Populism could also be seen as an ideology for the greater good.” Populism can have any kind of objective. What makes it genuinely populist is that it is an organic movement in resistance to elite misrule. The term originated as, and is still used as, a smear against such movements by elites. It can be of either left or right, in opposition to whichever side is mis-ruling at the particular time an place, which is why it… Read more »

Good comments, see this, Prof Essfeld and The 4th Turning too:
Utilitarianism, in whose name all major atrocities have been committed by nation states and peoples, has again replaced the concept and principle of unalienable individual rights, which was introduced in response to it and its atrocities.
Some good points in that Ruechel piece.
He does not look at the deeper origins of respect for the individual which imo (though I’m not Christian) lie in Christianity (the US founders were mostly Christians or deists, at the least culturally, as were their European predecessors).
Imo the defeat of Christianity meant the end of individualism, albeit not immediately and though the connection is subtle and complex.
A good description. It often appears to be true that the English language across the pond has been more stable over time in terms of the definition of words – but of course, thousands of new ones have been invented there in the first place.
However, it’s worth noting that large parts of the USA do not rely 100% on the language in consideration. The first time I went over there, there were quite a lot of native German speakers around, and of course Espanõl is the main one in some states for many people.
I overheard a senior NHS ‘diversity officer’ ranting about people who don’t get ‘vaccinated’. Working from home Zoom meetings should never be considered a secure method of communicating – even if I didn’t want to listen to the idiot.
I really cannot understand why the vaccinated are so enraged about those who won’t have the Covid injection. What is their problem?
Some of those who got vaxxed probably did so because they were told they were helping others, and resent others who do not similarly help out.
People who have refused it seem to be regarded by the bedwetters as walking disease factories, who could instantly infect anyone nearby despite the bedwetters being vaccinated – the government have made sure that they state that the vaccinations aren’t 100% effective, but they’ve had to tread a careful line here because on the one hand they want to bully as many people as possible into getting injected, so need people to believe that it’s worth doing, but on the other hand they want to maintain the public fear, and to encourage the public to treat the unvaccinated as enemies.
It’s a similar tactic to masks – no evidence that they reduce infection spread at all, but by claiming that they protected others, not the wearer, they successfully stirred up hostility towards those who don’t wear masks.
They’ve taken it and deep down know it’s not right, but if others have also gone along with it at least they’re not alone. Also, they’ve accepted the lie that the price of freedom is being dosed, and if anyone in their group of family/friends refuses it they can’t all go back to normal together.
I’ve come to think something similar ie that the jabbed know something isn’t right, either about the ‘get jabbed to get back to normal’ tripe, or that the jab isn’t quite what they thought it was. As every day goes by, more is being reported that the jab can have serious side effects, that they weren’t told it was still in trials, that they may well be in for a load of trouble come the next flu season. What it boils down to is, misery loves company. Deep down, they know they’ve been played for fools and want us all to join them so they can say we all fell for it. Except we didn’t.
They ought to be sued under the Trade Descriptions Act how can they claim to be Equal Opportunities employers yet discriminate against the unvaccinated?
When ADE kicks in they may not have any choice
Why should that matter for a mild virus? People are being forced into experimental ‘jabs’ and you’ve got to wonder why
How’s that going to work with the crazed alt/’religious right’… Surely there is some way in which these vaccines go against their views.
The one group I now look forward to most to see in the dock one day is the employers and managers that introduced and executed the discriminatory no jab, no job policies.
There is simply no excuse for that and them.
Zero.
Maybe the LVPD will stop arresting people who have not been vaccinated. 😉
The future is here…
Move to Florida. Nevada is a major sh..hole.

Of course all care home workers should be vaccinated, and LAPD as well. It’s only common sense after all. I am surprised at the views shown by comments on here, getting vaccinated is everyone’s duty.
No, it’s everyone’s duty to act according to their conscience and defend those who act as such.
Morality isn’t a tick box exercise.
